I have a neighbor who is 93. He is building his 3rd ultralight. Sadly, he may never finish this one but he flew his first home built ultralight when he turned 80. They wouldn't ever give him a license for it, he feels due to his age, so he sold it for a powered parachute because the requirements were lighter (no pun intended). He found it too 'wobbly' so he bought two old Gyrocopters to make 1 good one. Didn't like that either so after a recent heart attack, he decided he will build yet another ultralight and fly it regardless of not being licensed. At 93, e just isn't really concerned with a jail sentence at this point in his life.


With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.
